In a right-angled triangle the trigonometric ratios are defined as:
length
of
side
opposite
to
the
angle
sine
of
an
angle
length
of
the
hypotenuse
length
of
side
adjacent
to
the
angle
cosine
of
an
angle
length
of
the
hypotenuse
length
of
side
opposite
to
the
angle
tangent
of
an
angle
length
of
side
adjacent
to
the
angle
Given this, decide which quantities, the sine, cosine or tangent of the angles
and
you can calculate in the following triangles. Calculate the appropriate ratios to 2
decimal places.
